From what you mention it sounds like a bad idea as the system disk will have many R/W's going through it it seems as /tmp and Swap get written to all the time.
You can skip swap altogether and use MFS (memory filesystem) like Brian mentioned for other high write partitions that don't need to be persistent (/tmp, /var/log). See the following article on the freebsd.org website about using solid state storage: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/articles/solid-state/article.html
Keep in mind though that Brian's setup was for slave nameservers that would be caching from another master. If your nameserver is acting as master, you'll be storing your records on flash since you need persistent storage, but I don't imagine those files will be write intensive.
Also, if you make /var/log MFS, you'll want to have an external syslog server set up ;)
